Our Capabilities >

Tooling

At Univac, we are relentless in our pursuit of providing optimized solutions that meet the unique, industry-specific demands of today's sophisticated customer. As one of the leading manufacturers in high cavitations molds, we develop molds ranging in sizes up to 256 cavities, utilizing our specialized hot-runner systems. We are internationally recognized for our state of the art technology which ensures exceptional precision, stability, and repeatability.

Our reputation as the premium tooling specialist is one that we do not take lightly. We consistently provide high capacity, fast turnaround fabrication of prototype and production molds. Furthermore, our molds are built to Class 101 standards, undergo stringent qualification runs, and are constructed under the strictest confidentiality.

Precision tool design to ensure maximum production efficiency and repeatability

  • Product optimization, mold flow, DFM
